Camera Operator / Director, December 1st 2005

Week's job : CAMERA OPERATOR/DIRECTOR AND PRETTY MUCH A BIT OF EVERYTHING ELSE

Date : December 1st 2005

Cast :

John, Lone Wolf - Directors
Lone Wolf - Camera Operator
Ricardo, Yosuke, James - Actors

I came to film school a bit earlier so that I could watch my tape and remember how the stage was set up. After that me and John along with Ricardo moved to our lab. I found out fast enough that there was nobody there to help us with the set building or lights or any of those. So I had to do it all with John and James. James for once did not touch the lights :D me and John took care of those. I also did my favorite job later on as I was camera operator. I had the nice job to zoom in and out as well as capturing essential motion. No kidding, that IS the job of a camera op, and it's not easy at all, it requires some flair, and talent to execute the move perfectly.

I was happy because I really got to do everything with my gang, we really did a great job, and very efficient too since we finished on time. We took advantage of a lack of directors to do pick ups and coverage on John's mastershot, and I also made two quick shots for my own.

The download this week includes no video for once, as it was the exact same set as before with the ww2 thing. However, I have included 3 pictures that I took of the only people available for us at the time: James and John. I was seriously exhausted after Thursday, my feet were just killing me so much. Since I had to stand while bended and operate the camera. We had limited space on the set, but we got it, no more of that set for quite some time :D

This week's picture is again of James, as the Russian Sergeant wearing his fur hat and pointing a gun at me..zoiks.. :s

You can download pictures from the set here!



Thanks,
Lone Wolf
